MAN #650695 

Quick tips: 

While the BIM is operating, the dot in the upper left corner of the display will indicate the status: 

 

On steady indicates it is powered up but not receiving any BIM bus activity.   

 

Flashing indicates it is communicating on the BIM bus.   

 

A dot in the upper center indicates that there is an engine code set (MIL active). 

 

If the display shows 

“BUS”, then it is scanning to try and communicate with the vehicle bus but cannot get an 

answer. 

o

 

This could indicate that the ODBII connector is not wired properly  

o

 

The BIM-01-2-J1939 is not compatible with the ECU  

 
To see the sensor and channel status on the BIM display, press and hold the switch to cycle through the screens.  
The screen will display the data that is available:  



If you do not see any number of these listed it means it may not be transmitted for the BIM-01-2-J1939 to read. 

 

Emissions note: 

If your vehicle requires emissions testing in your area, the check engine feature of this unit cannot be used to operate the 
Check Engine or Service Engine indicator. 

 

Troubleshooting guide:

 

 

Problem 

Possible cause 

Solution 

No BIM data on instrument readout; 
BIM does not light up.

 

PWR wire does not have power. 
GND wire is not properly grounded. 
Power/data harness is damaged. 
 
Module is damaged.

 

Connect to a location that has +12V key-on power. 
Connect to a different ground location. 
Inspect harness. Repair or replace any damaged 
areas. 
Return for service. (see instructions)

 

No BIM data on instrument readout; 
BIM display is sca

nning   “BUS”

 

CAN Interface cable is not connected. 
 
 

 

Connect the supplied CAN interface cable between 
the BIM unit and the ECU

’s CAN output.

 

No BIM data on instrument readout; 
BIM has a steady dot lit.

 

Interface cable is not connected. 
 
Interface cable is loose. 
On VHX systems, the BIM display for 
this channel is disabled.

 

Connect the supplied harness between the BIM 
unit and the instrument system control box. 
Ensure both ends of the cable are seated securely. 
Follow instructions in VHX manual to enable the 
BIM display screen.
